As the core vehicle for preserving and transmitting traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) academic thought and clinical experience, the establishment of a robust quality evaluation system for TCM clinical case reports is a crucial component in the current standardization and modernization of TCM. Based on the practical experience of constructing the China Clinical Cases Library of Traditional Chinese Medicine by the China Association of Chinese Medicine, this study conducted a comprehensive analysis of critical challenges, including insufficient authenticity and unfocused evaluation criteria. It proposed a three-dimensional evaluation framework grounded in the structure-process-outcome logic, encompassing three dimensions of authenticity and standardization, characteristics and advantages, application and translational impact. This framework integrated 12 key evaluation indicators in a systematic manner. The model preserved the academic characteristics of TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment, while aligning with modern scientific research standards, achieving a balance between individualized TCM experience and standardized evaluation. Concurrently, this study provided theoretical foundations and methodological guidance for evaluating the quality of TCM clinical cases, contributing significantly to the inheritance of TCM knowledge, evidence-based practice, and the reform of talent evaluation mechanisms.

Objective:To analyze the distribution and differential characteristics of supply and demand preferences for chronic disease continuity services in rural areas,and propose optimization strategies for such continuity services from the perspective of balanced development.Methods:Based on the KANO model,a questionnaire on continuity services was designed,covering 21 functional elements across 3 core dimensions.The survey was conducted in 6 counties in central China from June to December 2024.The Mann-Whitney U test was used to analyze the differences and degrees of discrepancy in supply and demand preferences;a Boston Matrix was constructed to identify distribution characteristics and commonalities;and the Better-Worse coefficient and sensitivity coefficient were calculated to analyze the attributes and priority of the functional elements.Results:There was a significant imbalance between supply and demand,with the matching rate of demand attributes being less than 50%.Both parties had limitations in their understanding of continuity services,which were more pronounced on the demand side.The proportion of high-dimensional attributes was only 23.34%,and the demand side was unaware of the value of information continuity and collaboration with the supply side.Conclusions:The supply-demand differences stem from the combined effects of backward service concepts,insufficient transmission of institutional and mechanism reforms,and underutilization of primary-level functions.Optimization should be implemented in three aspects:internalizing the behaviors of the supply side,enhancing the intention of the demand side,and activating primary-level functions.
